“Nature propels the philosopher into mankind like an arrow; it takes no aim but hopes the arrow will stick somewhere. But countless times it misses and is depressed at the fact… The artist and the philosopher are evidence against the purposiveness of nature as regards the means it employs, though they are also first-rate evidence as to the wisdom of its purpose. They strike home at only a few, while they ought to strike home at everybody—and even these few are not struck with the force with which the philosopher and artist launch their shot.” —Gilles Deleuze & Félix Guattari, A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia, Treatise on Nomadology—The War Machine, p. 377; originally: Nietzsche, Schopenhauer as Educator, in Untimely Meditations, trans. R. J. Hollingdale (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1983), pp. 177–178. Archive.org”

“Let me pull back the curtain to reveal the wizard and the machinery. As someone who writes experimental fiction, hybrid memoir, and poetry, and who translates contemporary German-language literature, I hope this book shows you can be a writer and have a laugh, be a laugh. And have friends. Have your cake and eat it, too. It's like the backlash against method acting--you're not your character, why not just act.”

“That play of black upon white, white upon black, has the intent and takes the form of creative art. It has in it a flow of the spirit and a harmony of music. Everything is lost when suddenly a false note is struck, or one party in a duet suddenly launches forth on an eccentric flight of his own. A masterpiece of a game can be ruined by insensitivity to the feelings of an adversary.”

“آسانی آموزش زبان لاتینی برای ایتالیاییان، و فراوانی بقایای آثار هنری دوران باستان در آن کشور، راه را برای گرایش مردم ایتالیا به فرهنگ کلاسیک هموار ساخت؛ و چند عامل دیگر مانند سیرت قومی که با گذشت زمان دگرگون شده بود، و نهادهای سیاسی که لومباردها از آلمان وارد کرده بودند، و کلیسا، با آن گرایش به هم آمیختند و‌ روح مدرن ایتالیایی را که مقدر بود سرمشق و آرمان تمامی دنیای باختر زمین باشد، به دست آوردند.”
